This just heightens my contempt for the state of American poetry. Did Bertolt Brecht dance for Hitler? Future generations will look back at us and retch. Very sad.

I think you people need spend a bit more time with history and a little less with the flowery words. 3 of 21 10/26/11 3:31 PM Detainees: Re: Penn's Kenneth Goldsmith to perform at the Whi... http://wwwwsonneteighteencom.blogspot.com/2011/05/re-penn... May 5, 2011 12:50 PM Linh Dinh said... I'm sorry you don't understand the term "mass muderder," Bhodda, you purveyor of cliches and stereotypes, i.e., "flowery words." You're in the wrong neighborhood, lady. May 5, 2011 1:20 PM Dan Coffey said... I'm sure she understands the term "mass murderer," just as she understands that the analogy between Obama and Hitler is itself a cliche, as well as uninformed, puerile, and irresponsible, especially for someone who deals in words. May 5, 2011 2:41 PM Linh Dinh said... I've written about Obama extensively and have never said that he was a carbon copy of Hitler, nor am I saying it now. Mass murderers are all different, but to point out that Obama is a war mongering mass muderer repsonsible for the death of many thousands, now and in the future, is hardly puerile and irresponsible, my friend. My only point here is that one should never collude or allow oneself to be used by such a criminal. Instead of focusing on my main point, you've chosen to insult me, so do you feel better now. How old are you, by the way? May 5, 2011 2:50 PM Dan Coffey said... I'm sorry. I'm not up for a semantic war (i.e. I said analogous, not carbon copy). This is your fiery turf, and I respect that - and I like what I've read of your poetry. I shouldn't stick my nose in other people's blog back doors without knowing entirely where they're coming from, but honestly the idea of Obama being a mass-murderer instead of someone searching for the best way to get out of an untenable situation, handed to him by someone whom I could be convinced is a mass murderer, floored me. I don't read your blog, I just saw this pop up on Facebook. I'll get my hat. Oh, and I'm four, but I'm attending a Montessori school. 4 of 21 10/26/11 3:31 PM Detainees: Re: Penn's Kenneth Goldsmith to perform at the Whi... http://wwwwsonneteighteencom.blogspot.com/2011/05/re-penn... May 5, 2011 3:07 PM knott said... both Bhodda and Coffey are trying to sidetrack the issue by pointing fingers at your hyperbole rather than addressing the main question of whether any writer/artist should participate in such events when our country is pursuing three wars (to count only the overt ones, the subvert ones in Venezuela et al are too many to number). as I mentioned above, Sharon Olds was invited to a White House poetry shindig by the Bush administration, and she refused to attend. May 5, 2011 3:08 PM Linh Dinh said... Dear Dan Coffey, Our main difference is I think Obama is a mass murderer and you don't. This clarification from you is enlightening, and I respect that. May 5, 2011 3:11 PM Linh Dinh said... Dear Bill, Please provide a link to your wonderful blog post about this very subject, where you talked about Ashbury, DeKooning and the Shah of Iran. I, for one, would love to read it again. May 5, 2011 3:14 PM knott said... I don't remember the De Kooning post —though of course the CIA promoted and helped finance the elevation of the New York School of artists to prominence, which in turn helped advance the fortunes of the New York School of poets— maybe this is what you're referring to: http://knottprosepo.blogspot.com /2011/05/reprint.html —Avantgardistes like Goldsmith (currently touted as hotstuff by Perloffty profs of the Poetics Dept) dismiss the poetry of Sharon Olds, 5 of 21 10/26/11 3:31 PM Detainees: Re: Penn's Kenneth Goldsmith to perform at the Whi... http://wwwwsonneteighteencom.blogspot.com/2011/05/re-penn... just as I'm sure Ashbery disdained all those antiwar poems Robert Bly wrote back in 1973 when he (Ashbery) and John Cage and Robert Wilson and other famous Avantgarde sponge- artists were sipping champagne from Empress Farah the Shah of Iran's oily heel— ... May 5, 2011 3:41 PM Bhodda's My Ba'aag said... Your premise is confused from the outset. Hitler would've never asked Brecht to perform for him. He would have had Brecht killed. All the more amusing then to watch the commentary here descend down such an anti avant-garde rat hole. I can think of more than a few dead mass-murderers who would find the irony a bit funny. May 5, 2011 5:07 PM Linh Dinh said... Boddha, Bill Knott is pointing out the irony of Avant-Garde artists being funded by (and entertaining) reactionary elements, but I can see that you are clearly a very literal person, so no irony, hyperpole or humor, dark or light, for you.

    Interview with Kenneth Goldsmith | www.believermag.com | R... http://www.readability.com/articles/paoqzgku?readbar=1 believermag.com Interview with Kenneth Goldsmith by DAVE MANDL IS A PRODUCER/DJ AT WFMU AND MUSIC EDITOR AT THE BROOKLYN RAIL. HIS WRITING HAS APPEARED IN THE WIRE, MUTE, THE VILLAGE VOICE, AND YETI. HE COEDITED THE BOOKS RADIOTEXT(E) (WITH NEIL STRAUSS) AND CASSETTE MYTHOS (WITH ROBIN JAMES). Some books better thought about than read: Finnegans Wake The Making of Americans The works of Kenneth Goldsmith Conceptual poet Kenneth Goldsmith’s work is simultaneously among the most mundane and the most maddeningly provocative writing being done today. In books like No. 111 2.7.93–10.20.96, a massive compendium of words and phrases ending with the r sound, alphabetized and sorted by length; Soliloquy, which documents every word he uttered in a week; The Weather, a transcript of an entire year’s worth of weather reports on news station WINS; and Day, for which he retyped the entire contents of an issue of the New York Times, Goldsmith has produced monumentally “boring” texts that shun all frills and artfulness. Yet on his radio show—where he broadcast for fifteen years as “Kenny G.,” a subtle shot across the bow of the easy-listening saxophonist who uses the same moniker—he aired audio performances of this very same work as the “Hour of Pain,” a direct challenge to the tolerance of the station’s listeners. Goldsmith’s work forces a drastic rethinking of what a book or text can be. Incorporating elements of surrealism, concretism, and sound poetry, his writing takes pleasure in words as things of beauty (or manipulable items of data) in and of themselves.

Postmodern Culture Volume 19, Number 1, September 2008 E-ISSN: 1053-1920 DOI: 10.1353/pmc.0.0039 Kenneth Goldsmith's American Trilogy Darren Wershler Wilfrid Laurier University Review of: Kenneth Goldsmith, The Weather. Los Angeles; Make Now, 2005, Goldsmith, Traffic. Los Angeles: Make Now, 2007, and Goldsmith, Sports. Los Angeles: Make Now, 2008. I can't help it: trilogies are nerd Kryptonite. My childhood library was chock-full of science fiction and heroic fantasy books organized into epic troikas, all of which made grandiose claims about their ability to forever change my sense of literary genre, if not of consensual reality itself. As a result, any three books that self-consciously present themselves as a trilogy have for me an aura of importance about them, one that requires further interrogation. Kenneth Goldsmith's American Trilogy-The Weather, Traffic, and Sports-is no exception. In the first half of the last century, Ezra Pound claimed in his ABC of Reading that "artists are the antennae of the race" (73). In a global digital economy, though, both wireless and networked signals come at such speed and quantity that a set of rabbit ears will no longer suffice. In 1980, Canadian poet Christopher Dewdney updated Pound's metaphor in "Parasite Maintenance," comparing contemporary artistic sensibility to the satellite dish. From such a perspective, artists are devices for the accumulation and concentration of cultural data, cool and dispassionate. The quality of the objects and texts that they produce depends in part on what "Parasite Maintenance" refers to as "the will to select" (77).

    Kenneth Goldsmith HILLARY: The Hillary Clinton Emails Opening Hours: Curated by Francesco Urbano Ragazzi Tuesday - Sunday, 11:00 am - 07:00 pm May 9–November 24, 2019 www.internetsaga.com Opening reception and live performance: May 9, 7:30pm [email protected] Despar Teatro Italia Campiello de l'Anconeta 1944, 30121 Venezia Despar Teatro Italia opens the door to HILLARY: The Hillary Clinton Emails, a solo exhibition by the artist and poet Kenneth Goldsmith organized by the curatorial team Francesco Urbano Ragazzi. The project will be inaugurated on 9th May 2019 in conjunction with the 58th Biennale of Visual Arts in Venice thanks to the combined commitment of The Internet Saga and Zuecca Projects, with the collaboration of Circuitozero, The Bauers, NERO and with the support of Despar Aspiag Service. The exhibition will be held in the Cinema Teatro Italia which, at the beginning of the last century, was the second and largest cinema on the island. Following a meticulous restoration of its frescoes and a careful structural renovation, the building was converted into a supermarket by Despar in 2016. In this spectacular environment with its stratified history, Kenneth Goldsmith reflects on the intermingling between the private and public spaces in the age of mass digitalization. His starting point is the case which, exactly ten years ago, changed irrevocably the notions of privacy and transparency, propaganda and democracy in Western politics. It was in 2009 when the first doubts arose regarding a private server that Hillary Clinton was using for sending e-mails during her term as Secretary of State.

  • Uncreative Writing: Managing Language in the Digital Age Kenneth Goldsmith
    Uncreative Writing: Managing Language in the Digital Age Kenneth Goldsmith Why Appropriation? The greatest book of uncreative writing has already been written. From 1927 to 1940, Walter Benjamin synthesized many ideas he’d been working with throughout his career into a singular work that came to be called The Arcades Project. Many have argued that it’s nothing more than hundreds of pages of notes for an unrealized work of coherent thought, merely a pile of shards and sketches. But others have claimed it to be a groundbreaking one-thousand-page work of appropriation and citation, so radical in its undigested form that it’s impossible to think of another work in the history of literature that takes such an approach. It’s a massive effort: most of what is in the book was not written by Benjamin, rather he simply copied texts written by others from stack of library books, with some passages spanning several pages. Yet conventions remain: each entry is properly cited, and Benjamin’s own “voice” inserts itself with brilliant gloss and commentary on what’s being copied. With all of the twentieth century’s twisting and pulverizing of language and the hundreds of new forms proposed for fiction and poetry, it never occurred to anybody to grab somebody else’s words and present them as their own. Borges proposed it in the form of Pierre Menard, but even Menard didn’t copy—he just happened to write the same book that Cervantes did without any prior knowledge of it. It was sheer coincidence, a fantastic stroke of genius combined with a tragically bad sense of timing.

  • The Father of a Star High-School Athlete Confronts New York City's
    For Immediate Release: September 28, 2015 Press Contacts: Natalie Raabe, (212) 286-6591 Molly Erman, (212) 286-7936 Adrea Piazza, (212) 286-4255 The Father of a Star High-School Athlete Confronts New York City’s Patterns of Violence In the October 5, 2015, issue of The New Yorker, in “A Daughter’s Death” (p. 52), Jennifer Gonnerman investigates the violence occur- ring in New York City’s public-housing projects, and examines one father’s efforts to bring peace to his Harlem neighborhood in the aftermath of his teen-age daughter’s murder. “Last year, there were three hundred and thirty-three homicides in New York City, the lowest number of any year on record,” Gonnerman writes. “But almost twenty per cent of the shootings in the city occur in public-housing developments, which hold less than five per cent of the population.” Violent crime is so concentrated in some projects that to residents it can feel as if shootings and side- walk memorials were part of everyday life. For decades, the General Ulysses S. Grant Houses and Manhattanville Houses in Harlem have been embroiled in a feud, perpetuated by young residents who belong to “crews.” As Gonnerman explains, the crews are not affiliated with estab- lished gangs, and their disputes were not about drugs or money. “Rather, they fought over turf and status,” she writes. Taylonn Murphy’s eigh- teen-year-old daughter Tayshana—widely known by her nickname, Chicken—was a star athlete on the verge of applying to college when she was killed inside the Grant Houses, where she lived, on September 11, 2011.

  • Kenneth Goldsmith's
    What Really Happened? Kenneth Goldsmith’s “7+ Deaths and Disasters,” Sophie Calle’s, Take Care of Yourself Marjorie Perloff “Je voulais dire ça littéralement et dans tous les sens. ” Arthur Rimbaud, Une Saison en enfer Abstract In Seven American Deaths and Disasters (2013), Kenneth Goldsmith recounted a set of tragic and unanticipated events in recent American history by using transcriptions of radio and TV broadcasts, usually from minor networks. Designed to be an “eighth American disaster,” Goldsmith presented The Body of Michael Brown, a performance based on the St. Louis autopsy report at the “Interrupt 3” conference at Brown University (13 March 2015), eliciting widespread criticism and controversy. Seemingly very different from Goldsmith—Sophie Calle’s projects, for the past few decades, set up particular procedural processes that raise pressing epistemological questions, especially about the nature of relationships, personal and political. One of her recent projects, Prenez soin de vous (Take Care of Yourself) that was based on her installation for the Venice Biennale in 2007, comprises comments by 107 women on an email that Calle received from her then lover. In this project, Calle uses the “real” words of others to create a montage of possible interpretations of the discourse that confronts us in our daily lives. For Calle, as for Goldsmith, the most troubling gap is that between information and knowledge, while the issue, that a conceptual poetics can take as a premise, is that the body most difficult to get inside of turns

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Reading from A to Z: The Alphabetic Sequence in Experimental Literature and Visual Art A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in English by Jacquelyn Wendy Ardam 2015 © Copyright by Jacquelyn Wendy Ardam 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Reading from A to Z: The Alphabetic Sequence in Experimental Literature and Visual Art by Jacquelyn Wendy Ardam Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Michael A. North, Chair “Reading from A to Z” argues for the significance of the alphabetic sequence to the transatlantic experimental literature and visual art from the modern period to the present. While it may be most familiar to us as a didactic device to instruct children, various experimental writers and avant-gardists have used the alphabetic sequence to structure some of their most radical work. The alphabetic sequence is a culturally-meaningful trope with great symbolic import; we are, after all, initiated into written discourse by learning our ABCs, and the sequence signifies logic, sense, and an encyclopedic and linear way of thinking about and representing the world. But the string of twenty-six arbitrary signifiers also represents rationality’s complete opposite; the alphabet is just as potent a symbol and technology of nonsense, arbitrariness, and (children’s) play. These inherent tensions between meaning and arbitrariness, sense and nonsense, order and chaos have been exploited by a century of ii experimental writers and artists who have employed the alphabetic sequence as a device for formal experimentation, radical content, and institutional and cultural critique.

Seeing how we are in the middle of vast developing technological advancement, this essay will be an attempt to explore the effects it has on literature, as well as how literature reacts to these developments. This will be done through an analysis of the works of Kenneth Goldsmith, specifically his books Day and Fidget, which go against the traditional values of a literary work and are the preliminary works to the two chapters the essay is divided into. The essay begins with an overview on Goldsmith’s poetics, with a little bit of controversy and context, along with a short introduction to the main sidekick to Goldsmith’s works, Walter Benjamin. The first half of the second chapter of the thesis focuses mainly on Benjamin’s essay “The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction“ and the course of art from the beginning of the 20th century along with Alexander Alberro’s essay “Reconsidering Conceptual Art, 1966-1977”. The main speculations evolve around the invention of photography, in pursuit to connect the modifications it had on art to the alterations literature is forced through in the era of the internet. Whereas in the second half, the book Fidget will be shortly analysed based on the notion of materialized language.
